was in Bydgoszcz around about 1989
Improving? I was there over 3 years ago
Believe me, it could never really improve
If its so long since youve been there I dont think you can really comment on how it is here now. The same as I cant comment on Russia because I have not been there recently. Also, if Bydgoszcz was so bad then surely it can only improve yet you are saying in cant improve. Why is that?
dreadful roads
Roads are still a problem now because they are in the process of rebuilding the roads around the town. With 2 new entertainment centres to be built in the centre(one almost finished) they are going to need good roads so that it is easier for people to travel to these places.
Also the international schooling is very good in Bydgoszcz. There is of course an International house school with 20 native English speakers there.
There is also a bi-lingual school that is the best in the Kujawsko-Pomorskie region and is also the only one to run the highest qualification course in this area (dont ask me the name because I really odnt remember lol). In this school all lessons are given in English(science,History<maths etc) and there are students from Brazil, America and Africa all attending. This means is a mix of nationalities around Bydgoszcz which I think is important for the country as it will begin to make people more tollerant of different cultures.
